Replacement Interval
A clutch kit typically lasts 120 000 km under normal driving conditions. Aggressive driving, towing, or frequent stop-start traffic reduces clutch life significantly.
Always replace the entire kit (pressure plate, disc and release bearing) at the same time. Replacing only the disc is false economy.
Signs of a Worn Clutch
- Clutch slipping — engine revs rise but speed doesn’t increase
- Difficulty engaging gears or grinding when changing gear
- Burning smell when pulling away (especially on hills)
- High biting point — pedal nearly fully released before clutch engages
- Juddering or vibration when pulling away
